there're apparently vinyl pressings of this ??? if i had any sort of vinyl collection id definitely show this to everyone and laugh as if it was simply the most joyous and amusing thinga mabob. i have a pop is dead cd so the Poop of all time may be immortalized in my home

isaac p. miller   he / him   5'11   

some sort of proto-emo who likes looking at pictures of california and complaining to his friends that he lost his one true love ( girl he's too scared to approach number 23 got a boyfriend that wasn't him )
- in his early 20s; dropped out of college
- the p stands for pablo
- the type of guy to think he's single because he's 5'11 and not 6'0
- has a pet lizard
- he thinks he's super stylish but he consistently dresses like a 5 year old
- his name is isaac because he's faithless the wonder boy. get it
- he wants to be in a band but his friends dont so he just waves a guitar around and writes love ballads for women he'll never be within 15 feet of
- ^ has been doing his thing for a little longer than aya's been in the public eye for but he kinda secretly and also not-so-secretly idolizes her. never shuts up about her in fact but shhhhhhh shh shh
- he also likes to draw
- im a creep im a weirdo youre so fucking special i wish i was special

this is my sister's favorite radiohead

i think black star was the second radiohead song i ever heard ( after creep ) because it was on my sister's playlist and i had no idea it was radiohead ... high and dry also might have been on it but that one's not as special to me as black star. this is quite a ways down on my ranking but i still really like a lot of it and it's really nice as a cohesive sound and such et cetera et cetera

current fav: black star

my favorite usually shuffles between my iron lung and black star but nice dream is also there sometimes. black star kind of doesn't feel like a radiohead song to me but it tickles my brain in some sort of way

b sides n stuff

i love maquiladora 😊 and also the hexidecimal mix of planet telex i actually prefer it over the album track and it's really the only remix i go out of my way to listen to. the cover of the high & dry // planet telex single also is fun and i think more people should use shitty scribbles as official art

as far as the other stuff goes i also like india rubber off the fake plastic trees single and for some reason the first 3 seconds of banana co are really funny to me so i laugh every time it comes on

aya inoue   she / her   ~5'4   

- 20 something
- lead of a popular rock band isaac likes
- likes being Nonchalant in front of a camera and having girlfriends she can never keep
- very good at what she does and is well liked but is also a bit in over her head. enjoys the praise but there's a fear that she's too young to be selling herself to the music industry somewhere in there
- perfectionist
- has a rubber leg for reasons she's never explained
- polite // Pleasant individual but also has a habit of being upset about things just for the sake of being upset about them
- kind of pretentious about art. some form of a coping mechanism to "fit in"
- has friends but a hard time dealing with loneliness // figuring out where she's supposed to be
- theme is fake plastic trees

i made her ref like. a year ago ( july 2024 ) and i dont really like it but redoing it isn't super high on my priority list rn
check her toyhouse entry for gallery

ok computer is weird because i cant really find much wrong with it but somehow its not my favorite one

i think it's objectively tied with in rainbows for their best album but i simply. am cringe
the mix is really nice i feel like im standing in the middle of a comically large city inside a dome and thom yorke is like hey man slow down or whatever. i also like the twinkly computer sounds here and there and the percussion in climbing up the walls every time the song starts i go wow i really like the percussion in climbing up the walls the song i am listening to. glockenspiel in no surprises was a really good move and i especially like the bbc radio 1 session performance because it takes center stage. also the vocals in the tourist and what i think is ed's guitar in the first chorus of subterranean homesick alien ( they never play it live ) and the way "lake" is enunciated in lucky for some reason

bluemoji ranking

current fav: subterranean homesick alien

this song is a color that isnt in the visible light spectrum. you know. otherwise i'd say climbing up the walls there's a lot going on there and it meshes together well

b sides n stuff

polyethylene from the paranoid android single and meeting in the aisle from karma police are cool. i also like the cover art for karma police

if you arent aware and interested theres a shit ton of demos and early recordings and whatnot for this album online ( and the OKNOTOK white cassette exists also ). a lot of the songs that didnt make it onto the album got a studio release in 2017. i like lift & man of war is pretty good

iz ( isambard )   he / him   ~6'3   

- 35-40 ish
- smartastic guy with a thing for scientific progress who ship of theseus'd himself into a cyborg and then changed his mind about his entire life and got Sad something something flew too close to the sun
- currently in a sort of hooked up to life support situation
- he's extremely afraid of death so 80% of his personality is trying to get wanderblink to go away and never come back
- ^ it's not letting up any time soon and probably wants to be friends like a tiny dumb beagle. it's weirdly affectionate towards him
- doesn't know staghorn but would probably get along with him
- hypersensitive to anything that could be considered a vice and is bad at letting himself enjoy things
- theme is the tourist

i hadn't heard the phrase "radiohead" be mentioned since like 2013 before i learned about this album and i started listening to them because of a jacob geller video of all things because i live under a rock. he talked about the kid a mnesia exhibition and said it was made by radiohead and i thought "you mean like im a creep im a weirdo radiohead made this" so of course i had to listen to the album(s)

notes about this album are um the title track is fun and idioteque is pretty and i like the vocals on optimistic. in limbo has a nice rhythm and this is my favorite performance of the national anthem and for whatever reason i listened to the string arrangement of how to disappear completely from the rerelease a million times before i started listening to the actual song. i made my sister listen to this before bed and getting her to listen to radiohead has been like pulling teeth ever since. there is almost nothing i could say about this one that hasnt already been said and antonio fantanthony or whatever his name is saying this is the best radiohead was a good call but im not having it

current fav: optimistic

htdc is an "i have to be operating at 30% brain power to listen to this" song; in limbo and optimistic alternate

b sides n stuff

kid a doesnt really have b sides ???? there is a collection of kid a & amnesiac live recordings they released ( i might be wrong ) and i like that, though

this isnt related to bsides but i really love the shitty art made around this album's production i think it's so silly. like a lot of it is political commentary ( which radiohead is ... okay at ) but so much of the stuff stanley donwood and thom yorke shat onto paper in 2000 is just fun to look at. i love the modbears they should all explode

the kid a mnesia freaks are getting their own pages eventually here's a toyhouse link for now

DOORS ON THE RUDDERS OF BIG SHIPS. and revolving doorssssssssssssss

this was my favorite radiohead record when i first started listening to them i really liked you and whose army and pyramid song. i also listen to pulk/pull revolving doors as a sort of guilty pleasure thing sometimes and i enjoyed like spinning plates but i prefer the why us version by a landslide. i think the first listen of this one is the most magical juan but i still think itis veryy good regardless

bluemoji ranking

current fav: dollars and cents

i looooooovvveeee this song it's one of my alltime favorites ... im really fond of the bass & percussion in this song & the strings of course. so basically i like everything about this song's arrangement and instrumentation. pyramid song is close

b sides n stuff

i literally never listen to any of the songs on the pyramid song single i dont even remember what they sound like except for the amazing sounds of orgy and pyramid song itself of course 😭 .... i do however really really love the knives out single ... cuttooth and fog are nice i think they're very sweet sounding songs if that makes sense
also look how dumb the cover is this guy has his knives out. like 57 of them

the kid a mnesia freaks are getting their own pages eventually here's a toyhouse link for now

i was really not big on this album for a while but someone made me give it another chance if youre reading this and that sounds familiar it COULD be you or it could be ANOTHER GLAZER because i have since learned this hief is in high demand

i think this one is less cohesive than their other stuff ??? also a lot of the lyrics on this album are not my favorite ... but honestly i dont think music has to be super hugetelligent All Of The Time to be good

the big thing people say about this one is that it couldve used a trim and yeah. i dont think go to sleep or backdrifts or we suck young blood needed to be on here they couldve been put on a single or something. the gloaming drives me up the wall but seeing it be put on like every setlist theyve done since 2003 for some fucking reason has made me start to like it in a funny haha way ????

current fav: myxomatosis

this has always been my fav from httt. it's one of my favorite radiohead songs in general 💛 sail to the moon scatterbrain where i end and you begin and a wolf at the door usually find their way into my queue as well

i have very personal very complicated feelings about comlag 2plus2isfive its like my estranged alcoholic sibling that calls me mean names and comes to my door at 3 am look how fire this cover art is

what the shit 😀
i am a remyxomatosis HATER and paperbag writer genuinely might be my least favorite song ever ( Im Sorry ) ( see url ) HOWEVER ! i love gagging order. i dont listen often because it reminds me of music my sister used to listen to and that makes me a little more sad than what it's worth but i do love it

also i am citizen insane and fog (again) those are nice. the four tet scatterbrain remix couldve been really good but i think the percussion is slightly off beat and it really messes it up ??? idk if that's actually what's happening or if im just a stupid teenager that doesnt Understand Music

desmond staghorn   he / him   ~6'0   

- in his early 70s i think
- extremely passionate about his beliefs ( he has a lot of those )
- also angered very easily. has a tendency to say things without thinking first
- things on his vest are pins of some sort ... not polka dots </3
- rabbit researcher <3 loves his animals. used to work with a team but as of late he's mostly just been doing his own stuff
- was very outwardly opposed to the genetic experiments that made the modbears and kid a ( and ada the way she is )
- the prospect of humans having created a new intelligent species and being like "whatever go my homunculi" without preparing for it // properly bringing them up in any substantial way makes him upset & angry & scared etc. there's a group of hungry impulsive freaks in their infancy running around playing monkey see monkey do and not much is being done to sort that out
- actually quite insecure about himself but he's too stubborn to work on that despite spending a lot of time in his own head
- theme is scatterbrain

this is my second favorite radiohead album big surprise. of course it is. i think you could sell anyone on this album it's really good

this is their "warm" record and that's really the best way of putting it. it's very smooth and buttery and the timbre of all the instruments is very colorful and rich like uhhh like uhhhh like chocolate or perhaps even a rainbow. maybe a weird comparison but i associate in rainbows with amsp they have a similar "depth" of sound i guess ... i dont know music terms but if you like sounds that are nice on your ears this is the one ( or perhaps amsp ) ( maybe ) ( heehee ) ... in rainbows sounds so familiar to me but i cant quite think of an album that sounds like it its just comfy & it reminds me of cool stuff that lives in the ocean so it gets a big bonus in my book for that

look at this album cover .... that fetus blob needs to be turned into a deep sea creature immediately

stanley donwood made this with wax isnt that so rad

bluemoji ranking

current fav: reckoner

this song is so pretty and nice and does something weird to my brain it feels like consolation and Kindness and it's my favorite song. it has been my favorite song for about a year. in live performances they sort of compensate for the strings not being available by having jonny greenwood play the keyboard more prominently and i really do like that but i cant decide whether i like those arrangements or the strings more. it's one of the only radiohead songs that i actually really like the lyrics of 💀 ive also been listening to house of cards a lot recently its probably the song most fitting of the "warm" label on the whole record. love the vocals and the bass So Yummy. jigsaw and nude and all i need are great too of course. i think videotape is the only song on this record that i dont actively like really .. even faust arp has gotten quite a few plays from me

b sides n stuff

this album has so many b sides that they made anotjher one called:     in rainbows disk 2

im really eh about a lot of disk 2 but i fw down is the new up and go slowly

there's also i want none of this but zzz

it / its   ny / nyl

- weird fish(es) ...
- the soul of humanity or something
- named by humans & inherets their knowledge
- probably impossible to make an anatomical drawing of
- friends with wanderblink and the king of limbs ( as much as he can have friends )
- god ?????
- it's in the ocean but if you were to ever be near it it's like an evil wanderblink situation where you feel warm and whole instead of having your entire existence obliterated
- about as old as humans as a species have been around for. developed along with the evolution of neanderthals, etc. from a blob not unlike wanderblink
- roughly the size of a green sea turtle
- genderless and aroace but has a really nebulous concept of love so it's like schrodinger's allo
- theme is reckoner

i am a FREAK and i Love the king of limbs with all of its ferals and morning mr magpies

i have a separate category for things i like in my brain where i start becoming emotionally attached to them even if there are significant parts of it that i dont like in the way that someone might say that they love someone but they hate a certain aspect of them. do you know what i mean. tkol is like that for me. its really not a great album but its so endearing to me

this album is mixed and arranged differently from in rainbows obviously but it sounds warm to me in its own way. the title and cover art kinda make it sound like it'll be kid a 2 but it's the most whimsical and wizardful radiohead album there ever was and if you go into it like that it's way better. i love the layered percussion i love the 3 billion noises being click tweet ouu schwep ed in my ear i love that it's mechanical but woodsy at the same time. i love that most of the lyrics barely mean anything

bluemoji ranking

they shoudlve called it the teehee of limbs

current fav: separator

this song is just vibey. lotus flower and little by little are good too theres so much going on & its nice to peel back the layers and swim through them. give up the ghost too but that's like 3 instruments. this is my favorite performance of lotus flower

b sides n stuff

this album has fouuuuurrrish b sides ???? i really like staircase and i dont care for the daily mail; supercollider is alright but i couldnt tell you how the butcher goes i completely forget. there's also a remix album with 19 tracks on it and they're all uhhhhhh not so good 😭 but its okay i can run away to the ogs. im not really sure if these are my twisted words counts as a b side for tkol because i dont know when it was recorded

it / its   he / him

- giant hulking mass that lives in the woods
- has kind of been given spooky urban legend status but is just hanging around in the middle of nowhere minding its business
- doesn't feel much and doesn't think much; it's just barely above the sentience of a beetle
- can't recognize individuals and is barely a person but wander and iris like to think of it as a friend
- ^ the middle of the three in age; born around the time life on earth formed and developed from there
- manifestation of physical life as opposed to iris' humanity and wanderblink's nothingness
- has extremely complex biological systems
- very hard to kill but not immortal
- holds the. Black Things. with its Limbs
- theme is bloom

you walk into my lair and i rip my shirt open to reveal another shirt underneath that says "i love amsp" and also it's written on my forehead and i dissolve into a puddle of mercury. i looooooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeee a moon shaped pool it is my favorite thing. gosh golly that pool is spitting something so moon shaped. i even made the page title amsp themed

yes there are lyrics on this album that are corny but there are also glass eyes and uhhh tinker tailor and true love waits and daydreaming and desert island disk ... i interpret a lot of the lyrics on this album sort of as acceptance of things you're insecure about what with decks dark being about dying eventually etc etc. amsp is about being aroace if i want it to be the anniversary is even on asexual visibility day. thom yorke and all his pronouns

other notes ummm this album has my favorite arrangement out of any radiohead i think. i'm a sucker for chamber pop & the strings are done very well. i also love the grip that this album has on what it wants to be ??? like it sounds so. yeah. in rainbows is maybe better in the catchy department but i almost appreciate amsp as an ambient album and through that lens its a little more special to me. it's close. my only complaint with the arrangement is that i kinda wish there was a glockenspiel or maybe even just a triangle somewhere in there. something twinkly ( ier than a piano )

bluemoji ranking

current fav: present tense

this song is special it just isss idk how to explain that ... my favorite is usually either this one, burn the witch, or identikit. i really love the drums in live performances of identikit and i kinda get the vibe that they were something arranged afterward but the album had already come out so they were just like oh shit. or they just couldn't have clive deamer on the day they recorded it or something 😭 ; there aren't really any songs on this album i don't like but i don't listen to daydreaming ( for no reason i can figure out; i put it on playlists and when it comes on i go 😀 daydremign and skip ) or true love waits ( makes me Very Sad )

b sides n stuff

ill wind is really nice i listen to it from time to time. i think if someone asked me to show them a radiohead song where thom yorke isn't doing his creep faux-kurt cobain voice i'd pull this one up. spectre's alright & so is harry patch but that one i also avoid because it makes me unnecessarily upset

can you belieeeeevvveeeee this used to be my least favorite radiohead album

it / its   she / her

- shapeshifter named ( like iris ) by humans for its tendency to meander around without actually approaching anyone
- can be found Standing There in the middle of the night to be mistaken for a woman from afar
- sort of the death to iris' life ( or the empty to iris' full maybe ). finding it nearby is seen as a bad omen
- incites feelings that are hard for humans to process, effects of standing too close to it range from dissociative episodes to actually disappearing
- ^ not malicious in any way though. she just exists like that
- ada got too close at some point. it gave her a scar and dpdr
- it's mostly nonverbal but will babble nonsense that vaguely resembles speech sometimes
- its favorite game is pretending to be human
- doesn't understand most language but has some sort of psychic link thing going on with iris ( they're friends until the heat death of the universe )
- iz hates it with a passion but it doesnt seem to care or notice, it's uncharacteristically sociable with him in fact
- the dark stuff is like black hole goop idk it will kill you unless you are iris
- theme is tinker tailor soldier sailor rich man poor man beggar man thief
